Rally Calls for Residents’ Support to Keep Harlem Local
Over one hundred protesters—some still dressed in their Sunday best—carried signs with phrases like “Harlem is Our Mecca,” “Stop Cultural Genocide,” and “Stop Bleaching Harlem” on Sunday. The advocates were marching in the “Save Harlem” rally at the New York State office buildings’ outdoor pavilion at 125th street. The rally, sponsored by the Harlem Tenants Council, was organized to protest Kimco Realty’s purchase of a strip of property that includes business from 2331 to 2349 Frederick Douglass Boulevard. Adam Leitman Bailey, who has represented the Harlem Tenants Council for the past two and a half months, spearheaded the rally.

This group are racists blame and simple. They should be ignored. It is one thing to raise awareness of the need for more affordable housing – a much other thing to attack white people because of it.
Where is Sharpton to talk out about this group? Unbelievable.
